Ia order that the German nation might

have knowledge of the most advanced

theories aud practice in the construe

tion and operation of railways an im

the United states a short time ago for

the purpose of examining American

railways and making such recommca nations as tlu-ir investigation thoull

tion, which was recently published, one

of the tir-t sentences is ns follows:

"Lack of tpeed, lack of comfort, lack of cheep rati v. an the ehargee brought

neaiiifet the (b-rman empire's railwav

A shipper having a hundred thousand barrels of flour or a million bushels of grain for export must nine it from Buffalo to New York WithIn a specified time, and he cannot risk the slow process of the canal.

railroads to-day furnish the. bist s. rv -b e in the world, at the lowest ratet of fare, at the same time pay ing thi ir employes very much higher wages than arc paid for similar s rvic in any . tber country ou the globe. In tbe I nited States the Iii s"t -class p.iskerg-r fan last year uveraged S.'.'s cents pi.r mile, although on some large railway i the average was several mil.s less than two cents per mile; in England the tirst-c!.-:-s fare is four cents per mile ; thinlelass fare, for vastly inferior service, is two cents per mil. . but only on certain parliamentary trains. In Prussia tin

fare i.s three cent.- per mile; in Austria, 3.05 cents per mile, and in France, 3.30 cents in r mile.

Our passenger care excel those of foreign count ties in all t ha t goes to make. up the comfort and convenience of a

journey, tiur sleeping ami partor car system is vastly superior to tin it's; our

baggage ty etem is Infinitely betti r than theirs and arranged upon a much motu liberal basis. American railroad! carry 150 pound! of baggage free, whilei the Herman railrcads carry only 53 pounds free. The lighting of ourlraius is superb, while the lighting of trains on most foreign liaet II wretched. Theee arc some of the achi cremen ta of American railw nys in pattengtt service that have not been approached in at v other country oa the globe, and la my opinion it is achievements of this character that have made it possible for the United states to expand Its oontBterce vvith inch titounding rapidity. The fact that American paaienger service attracts the attention of people of every other Country who visit our shores i- demonstrated by the desire 0)1 all foreigners to ride on the Fmpire state eipreeo thf fastest loag'dtttaaoe train in the world and the further da sire to examine the magnificent mas chines that haul our gnat trains.
